Designing objects through situations
In our designs, we favor looking at the negative space that forms around our objects, rather than solely focusing on the objects themselves. Hence the name: Around the Table.
The works are interlinked through their embedded functions: tables, benches, and light objects, all coming together to form a sense of familiarity for the viewer.
Light objects by Pauline Strandt and Virginia Benedetti illuminate the hall; Niels RLG and Gabrielle Moine offer all-around seating and dining explorations; Alice Meneghetti creates a multilayered space for immersion and reflection; and Martins Mezulis reverses the meaning of a well-known traffic symbol.
The collective questioned how an object can influence a night out, a dinner party, or the morning rush in the kitchen. And, furthermore, what happens when these everyday situations and conversations become the starting point for the objects themselves?
